Even in the worst circumstances the Boomcada can be lethal anywhere! Solo drop too. Being used to going no less than 129 kph in Cicadas, 44.5 is painful. I dropped a ton of armor for more ammo though.

I encountered this loadout once on River City on Assault Mode. Pretty much that mech had to stay at base and hide until the foe showed up. To say the least - it did not survive and had no kills.

Hummm, good point. Playing with things you can actually get up to an XL195 or an XL180 and a bit of extra armour or ammo.

BJ-1


why not doing it this way?

better armor, better speed and more ammo

as for the CDA:

Does not work. Not enough heat sinks. It's really hot with the 10 minimum as is.

Worry not, dear sir, for you will undoubtedly not live long enough to take that fourth shot.

For the truly epic players among us, whose awesomeness shines through the internets with greater luminosity than a supergiant star, you can remove all armor and add in two more tons of AC/20 ammo. =)


I'm sorry but this is in no way shape or form on topic, but that is the best thing I have read all night.

If it didn't work you did it wrong. :D

Also, there's a special moment when you drop into ready screen and immediately someone chats: "Oh, Damon Howe. You're the ac20 cicada right?"

Good times, good times.

LOL, this build actually makes a 2AC20 Blackjack look competitive by comparison :D :D

But then again, I was one of the original creators of the LRM90 ROFLPult, so I`d drive it in a hearbeat :D

I can. I have a 1-1 K/D with the dang thing. Which considering how much of a joke build it is, I would think is pretty dang impressive, not to toot my own horn.

That being said, sometimes its just not your day. Even the best pilots lose horribly from day to day.

Especially when you have armor coverage that makes a Rifleman's rear torso armor look good.

most useless mech ever. you are slow as hell in a fragile mech, with a pathetic amount of ammo. Even a complete noob would know to blow it away on sight.

Umm....did you read the post, or just look at the smurfy?

TL;DR Reading stops you from making posts like this.

You see, that's the thing - they either never get a chance, or in their blind charge they make it incredibly easy for me to aim.
